It took some time but I manged to create a DMG image file for OpenTTD 1.0.5. Just extract the zip, open the DMG file and drag the OpenTTD application to the application folder. You can download the DMG file here.
Open Transport Tycoon is a game which supports Windows and Linux native. Since I use a mac I tried to compile it for OSX, which worked out pretty well. If you have a Mac and want to play OpenTTD you can download the compiled version here. Just unzip the file by double clicking. The only thing missing is the graphics and sound files.
The graphics can be downloaded here. Just extract the zip file into the data directory of my compiled version.
The sound files can be downloaded here. Just extract the zip file into the data directory of my compiled version.
If you run into trouble feel free to leave a comment. This version of OpenTTD has been compiled on Mac OS 10.6.4.

Synthesia is a very cool game for beginner, novice and expert piano players. At first sight it looks a little bit like Guitar Hero, but now it is used for piano. Here are some more screenshots. Nice about synthesia is that it is free. The free version can load all the midi files you want, but does not show any sheet music. If you want to see the sheet music you have to buy Synthesia for $18.
